Receiving calls

If you receive an incoming call when the device is in sleep mode or the screen is locked,
the phone application opens in fullscreen format. If you receive an incoming call when the
screen is active, the incoming call is displayed as a heads-up notification, that is, in a
minimized window that floats at the top of whatever screen is open. When such a
notification arrives, you can choose to answer the call and open the phone application
screen, or you can reject the call and stay on the current screen.
To Answer an Incoming Call when the Screen is Inactive
•
Drag to the right.

upper part of the heads-up notification window. Using this method, you get more options to
manage the call. For example, you can decide to reject the call with a message or forward the
call to the answering machine.

Using the answering machine
You can use the answering machine application in your device to answer calls when you
are busy or miss a call. You can enable the automatic answering function and determine
how many seconds to wait before the calls get answered automatically. You can also
manually route calls to the answering machine when you are too busy to answer them.
And you can access messages left on your answering machine directly from your device.
Before using the answering machine, you must record a greeting message.
